All-Clad E9077964AMZ Pasta Pot with Mesh Insert and Stainless Steel Ladle, 8-Quart Cookware, Silver

Not real All Clad quality...Made in China
For what it is, it is way over priced. My husband knowing I prefer All Clad stainless cookware bought this for me from the Williams-Sonoma website for $112.00, but sad to say, the quality, fit and finish are of much lessor quality than my older All Clad pots and pans that were all manufactured in the USA.

My friend has a 4 piece set of the Excelsteel 8 Quart, 18/10 Stainless Steel brand that she paid less than $35.00 for and it is made in China, and her brand and my All Clad brand have the same quality, weight, and finish.

The All Clad brand for me now is just another cheap Chinese made piece of deficient cookware that has finally followed all of the other, what used to be USA manufactured, top quality kitchenware, into the abyss of junk.
Outstanding cookware
I have used many pasta pots and found this pot to be of the best quality yet. The Pot has a heavy clad bottom for perfect distribution of heat with the remainder consisting of high quality stainless steel and heavy duty handles. The insert is also high quality stainless steel mesh supported by stainless steel framework. This mesh is considerably easier to clean than those inserts which are made by a series of holes. I have already used this pot for pasta and soups many times and just love it. The ladle is also heavy duty polished stainless steel and which is also of great quality.

All-Clad E8979064AMZ 2-Tier Stainless Steel Steamer with Locking Tongs Set, 5.3-Quart Cookware, Silver

Made in China
I was going to buy this, during the gold-box deal, but went to another web site selling it for $140 not on sale and found it was made in China and that the bottom is aluminum.
After a few of the comments I received I went to All Clad and they told me if I was concerned about it being made in the USA then buy the D5 line, haven't looked at that yet as I was just looking at gold box this morning. They told me they monitor the products made in China if that makes any one feel better.
All Clad Quality
This steamer is a real hit with my wife who loves steamed veggies.. Flawless design and finish is the hallmark of All Clad and this steamer is no exception.
My self Steam
Owning the D5 Set of pots and pans gives me an appreciation that this set isn't as well built so I took off a star given that the prices is still steep for the All Clad name. The set is I'm sure going to last me and performs well. I just don't see the quality I see in the other products I own from All Clad, but understand I could have shelled out more and got a D5 equivalent. I didn't. I'm displeased as well that this is not USA made. Foreign import and the workmanship shows it. However, it goes to the price I paid.

All-Clad Metalcrafters Copper Core Round Roaster with Stainless Steel Spoon, 6-Quart

Only the best
This the best pot I have. Easy to clean and heats evenly. Wish I could afford more! I love it.
Well constructed
Beautiful pot. Well constructed overall I'm always happy with the quality of All-clad and know it will last a lifetime.
AMAZING!
Yes, I know this roaster is an investment. But well worth it. Its virtually nonstick. Easy to clean (my husband loves this part as he is the dishwasher in our family) Heats quickly. I use it mostly on the stove-top. I also found that I like to boil pasta in this pan. Great for steaming vegetables. I also have other All-Clad Copper Core pans and have found the lid works on some of them as well. I can't think of any negatives.
